Speaker 3: out and get on tour.

45
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 9: We Keisha and I were on. We just started back

46
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 9: a year ago.

47
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 4: We came back out.

48
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 9: We did the R and B tour part of that. Yeah,

49
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 9: we were home. We came my family and.

50
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 3: How difficult was that getting back on the road, getting

51
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 3: back on dancing, getting back on How difficult was that?

52
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: It?

53
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 10: Really it wasn't.

54
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 9: It really wasn't difficult. It's like, you know, like riding bike.

55
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 9: Once you did it done, so it's just you know,

56
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 9: my kids are older, Keisha still has a high school child.

57
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 9: But so it wasn't hard at all. They're very supportive,

58
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 9: you know. They actually was like, go do it.

59
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

60
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 6: Rehearsals was dope. We had to you know, work it

61
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 6: out a little bit. But like Keema said, it's like

62
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 6: riding a bike once you get started.

63
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: My vibe is very authentic.

64
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 11: So it's you know.

65
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 3: But people went through dances from the old videos. If

66
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 3: you ain't hitting them them.

67
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 9: Dances, we danced and we got our box.

68
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 5: How did y'all find that balance back in the day

69
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 5: between being like sexy was strong, was still street with it, Like,

70
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 5: how did y'all find that balance?

71
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 9: It was just natural, like that's just who we are

72
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 9: growing up Jersey, Like how we.

73
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 6: Were, Yeah, and that's what made us. To me, that's

74
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 6: what made us who we were. Total the name started

75
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 6: out as total opposites because we were all individuals in

76
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 6: our own way, you know, So it was it wasn't

77
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 6: like you had to buy the brand.

78
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 11: We came as we were.

79
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 5: Yeah.

80
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, How was the bad Boy ever back then? Growing up?

81
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 10: Right?

82
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: Because there was a time nineties two thousand it was

83
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 3: nothing but bad Boy in the radio, nothing but bad

84
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: Boy on the streets, mixtapes to clubs. How was that

85
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 3: era where it just it felt like anything y'all did hit.

86
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 11: It was some beautiful things.

87
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 9: It was fun, it was. That's what we learned a

88
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 9: lot of our grind from that whole era.

89
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 4: Grinding just out there.

90
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 11: It was going the time like it was just fun.

91
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 11: It was just like a big.

92
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 10: Yep.

93
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 7: Yeah that's crazy us coming from Atlanta, you know what

94
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 7: I'm saying.

95
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 12: It like it was a different it was like a

96
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 12: different culture. So you know, you know, you can imagine

97
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 12: how that felt.

98
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 2: He's coming.

99
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 12: I know, he's from the you know what I'm saying.

100
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 12: So you're coming to New York culture culture, you know,

101
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 12: so you know, but but it was so much fun

102
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 12: because it was just like, okay, clubs smaller, but you

103
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 12: know what i mean. But it was like in your face,

104
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 12: so you know what I'm saying. So, but we learned

105
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 12: a lot musically here m hmm. What about you for

106
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 12: you case now, you weren't on Bad Boy, you were

107
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 12: on Death Jam Jam. You a songwriter, you had you

108
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 12: have the I always say, you have that one wedding

109
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 12: song that you will get paid for for the rest

110
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 12: of your life.

111
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,359
Speaker 2: Happily after.

112
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: That was that was coming up for you in that

113
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: and during that time because at that time you were

114
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 3: death Jam. Death Jam was heavy pop and you was

115
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: probably one of the only R and B singers at

116
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: the time.

117
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 10: I mean it was.

118
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 13: It was cool for me, except for the only problem

119
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 13: that they was learning on the fly how to do

120
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 13: R and B and so I get caught up in

121
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 13: that sometime. But yeah, I mean, you know how big

122
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 13: they was then, so that part was cool. It was

123
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 13: just a lot of times they had a lot of

124
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 13: hip hop sensibilities because it's hip hop label. But one

125
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 13: of the things that helped me was that I was

126
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 13: the last artist that Russell personally signed to Death Jail,

127
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 13: So I'd always call him and be like, yo, I

128
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 13: can snitch.

129
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 5: The record was gonna be so timeless, like touch me,

130
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 5: tease me happily.

131
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 13: I didn't know, but that's what I always wanted to do. Like,

132
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 13: I never wanted to make like trendy stuff. I always

133
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 13: wanted to make music like my parents would listen to

134
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 13: stuff from like twenty thirty years earlier, and it would

135
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 13: have me doing it. And so my thing was like,

136
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 13: if I could do that, then I'd be happy and

137
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 13: then everything else will fall in line.

138
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 5: You worked with a Mary Jay beyond Foxy Brown, who else?

139

141
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 5: What's a session that changed the way you saw yourself

142
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 5: as an artist?

160
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 10: So it was a lot of different moments.

161
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 3: I felt like, def Jim didn't treat you like a

162
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 3: regular artist, right with total.

163
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: In one twelve.

164
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 3: I would see them out in the club like bad

165
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 3: Boy would have him Mountain Death Jim artists, Deaf Gim

166
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 3: would have them mount I didn't see you Deaf Jim

167
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: put you out as much like that?

168
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: Was it because you didn't want to.

169
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 5: Go out or I probably didn't know what to do

170
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 5: it because he was R and B.

171
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 10: I think a lot of it.

172
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 13: Yeah, First of all, I hate going out, okay, So

173
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 13: if I didn't have to be there, listen, that's why

174
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 13: you always be like yo, you had a lot of

175
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 13: stuff about you because I know how to.

176
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 10: Over here.

177
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 13: So yeah, I mean I wasn't really big on going out,

178
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 13: or when I did, it'd be I'd be somewhere else

179
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 13: unless I had to be somewhere with them.

180
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 9: Gotcha, did you guys? Well, Mike, I saw you say that.

181
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 9: You feel like, you know, you guys, first album without that,

182
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 9: you don't think that R and B would be as

183
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 9: prevalent or as worldwide as it is right.

184
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 7: Now, Okay, okay, So yeah, because we felt like we

185
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 7: contributed a lot more than one twelve. You know, we

186
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 7: walk around with modesty on our shoulders and stuff, and

187
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 7: I know that that's you know, Huberts to say that

188
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 7: while you're talking about modesty, right, But yeah, we we

189
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 7: always walked around with this this mindset that, man, we'll.

190
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 2: Let our actions speak for themselves.

191
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 7: But we would always challenge people like find us because

192
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 7: our niche in the industry was hip hop and R

193
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 7: and B. We weren't just hip hop artists, I mean

194
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 7: R and B artists, We were hip pop and R

195
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 7: and B artists. So yeah, the mind frame was we

196
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 7: started that whole trend. It's like the way music sounds now.

197
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 7: One twelve had a lot to do with that because

198
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 7: no one can really give us a group that did

199
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 7: it the way that we did it before one twelve,

200
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 7: Like as far as singing over hip hop beats and

201
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 7: stuff like that, like you, I challenged in but find

202
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 7: me a group that did it. Because back in the day,

203
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 7: what you had the A side and you had the

204
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 7: B side right, and then on the B side, so

205
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 7: the records, right, they had the records, you had the

206
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 7: uptempot records where they were singing, but they were always

207
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 7: all that singing over uptempo beats and stuff. It was

208
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 7: like it was confusing.

209
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: Puff. One one thing that Puff told us.

210
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 7: Was like when you're in the club, when you when

211
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 7: you're recording a record, right, sing the song as if

212
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 7: you're in the club drinking and you're trying to holler

213
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 7: at the girl.

214
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 2: You ain't gonna be in this girl talking about.

215
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 4: Yeah you gonna go.

216
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: I want to be with you, you know what I mean,

217
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: It's gonna be something smoothing.

218
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 7: So when we wrote records, when we wrote the uptimbo

219
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 7: records and then Slim having the voice being able to

220
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 7: just lay on the tracks the way that we did,

221
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 7: like that started an hole ever where people now like

222
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 7: when you hear R and B it has a hip

223
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 7: hop element.

224
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: To it as well. It's not just R and B.

225
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: It's a hip hop element.

226
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 5: Isn't that a bad boy formula or wasn't that Diddy,

227
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 5: Like I feel like Diddy did that like with Jodysie.

228
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 5: I feel like he did that with Mary j Blige

229
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 5: like he did that with Total.

230
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: I'll give you that.

231
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 7: I'll give you Mary j Blige because yeah, she she helped,

232
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 7: uh because we always say that Mary is between Mary

233
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 7: and one twelve, but one twelve really and then yeah,

234
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 7: puff did you know he did contribute because we came

235
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 7: in with just we are and B we aren't b bro,

236
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 7: like forget all that stuff man like hip hop that's

237
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 7: gonna cheapen our sound and all this sudden stuff. And

238
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 7: he's had the vision was like, Yo, this is what's

239
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 7: gonna separate y'all from the drew Hills, from the Jaggets,

240
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 7: from the you know, the Ajets and all these other

241
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 7: groups that were coming out at the same time.

242
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 8: And you know what that that didn't make perfect sense,

243
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 8: right instead of all I would love a nigga to

244
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 8: come up to me and class, let.

245
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: Me tell you what exactly.

246
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 7: That's exactly what it was because tis out of ten

247
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 7: ain't gonna be able to sing. So he's like, bro,

248
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 7: all of that in my ear, like I don't want

249
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 7: to hear all that you know, so that.

250
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 5: You agree with Mike's assessment. Not to start any arguments here,

251
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 5: but case do you agree with that?

252
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean it was, it was part of it.

253
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 13: I mean that during that era, but that's when hip

254
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 13: hop and R and B was Yeah, yeah, pretty much, and.

255
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 5: I feel like bad Boy was at the forefront of.

256
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, yeah, because Total was hip hop with that

257
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 6: touch of R and B. R and B group, but

258
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 6: I think we were more base hip hop with the

259
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 6: touch of R and B. And Mary definitely was the

260
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 6: pioneer of that sound.

261
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 9: And Total, you guys are some of the I'm sorry,

262
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 9: go ahead shout.

263
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 11: Out to No No No.

264
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 6: I was just gonna say when he when Puppe did

265
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 6: the remixes with Jodasy, because Jodasy was just the R

266
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 6: and B and then he brought the hip hop elementary.

267
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 5: Ghost facing Ray Kuon on the Freaking You remix, you know,

268
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 5: like I can't even I don't want to hear can't

269
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 5: you see without Biggie part? Like I hate hated when

270
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 5: some of the urban AC stations back in the day

271
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 5: didn't play Raptors, just played the R and B.

272
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: I hated.

273
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, I would go before record.

274
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 5: Yes, because they didn't want you didn't play played.

275
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 3: So how did y'all sign to Puff? When did y'all

276
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 3: meet Puffing? Puff is like, this is the group that

277
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 3: I want. How did that start?

278
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 9: Because the first time we met Puffy through we met

279
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 9: these guys that introduced us to Kathy. Kathy was from

280

Speaker 9: Puff is. What's her son's what is her son's godfather?

282
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 9: He's the little baby, the little first baby baby put closer.

283
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 11: So that's how we met him. Can I can I bring?

284
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 11: Can I bring them in?

285
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 6: So Kathy one day when when we were introduced to Kathy,

286
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 6: Kathy was like, I would love to represent y'all manage all.

Speaker 6: the studio with Josy doing the remix. So he comes downstairs.

295
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 6: He introduces himself and then we just start singing, but

296
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 6: we're performing.

297
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 11: We had him all backed up against the wall and

302
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 6: along in the studio, like if we had an argument,

303

Speaker 1: the first one y'all recorded?

313
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 6: Well, we recorded songs that never went anywhere because we

314
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 6: were just trying to find our sound. But can't you

315
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 6: no Juicy Juicy.

316
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 3: Juicy was the first record I did and I was

317
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 3: working with Biggie Amazing. You gotta break it down both

318
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 3: songs Juicy and the can't you see.

319
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 9: The story behind how we wind up recording. Juicy is

320
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 9: like Big was like our little big brother. Like we

321
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 9: were close with Big, so we would frequently be in

322
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 9: New York hanging out in the studio with him. So

323
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 9: he called this one day. He was like, come to

324
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 9: the city we was in. He was in the studio.

325
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 9: So we went to the studio and he was playing Juicy.

326
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 9: Keisha started humming something. Big he was like, y'all should

327
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 9: go in there and put that down. So he, you know,

328
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 9: just gave us some words or whatever, and we went

329
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 9: in there and we put it down, and Puff had

330
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 9: us come back the next day and do the one

331
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 9: More Chance songs. So that's how it started. Juicy original

332
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 9: one More Chance, the one on the album is different

333
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 9: from the.

334
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: With the voicemail in the front.

335
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 11: Need to work on that.

336
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 9: Juicy, It says it now when you google it. But

337
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 9: I assume that it wasn't necessarily supposed to been a

338
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 9: feature for me because it was his first single and

339
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 9: stuff like that. So yeah, and I think, you know,

340
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 9: we were new. I don't think it was something that

341
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 9: just happened. Like we were in the studio and we

342
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 9: got in trouble. It was our maners like, don't do

343
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 9: that no more. But I just think they didn't plan

344
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 9: for it to be Biggie's first album to have a

345
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 9: feature on it.

346
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: Did y'all get writing cres for it? No?

347
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 11: No, because Big wrote it right.

348
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 5: I didn't know y'all was on Juicy al and we

349
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 5: know those records more chance. Dirty Version is like one

350
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 5: of my favorite records.

351
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: Wow, can't you see why can't you see it come together?

352
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 6: We just came to the studio and the track was

353
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 6: playing and we were like, oh snap, and then Terry

354
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 6: Robinson Terry what was the group that Terry?

355
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 4: The Girls?

356
00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 6: Terry Robinson's so incredible as far as songwriting, and she came.

357
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 11: She was like, this is this is what it is?

358
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 11: Okay verse I like that verse. She liked that verse,

359
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 11: like that verse. We went recorded it and it was

360
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 11: what it was. It No, No, Big wasn't on it.

361
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: He was a studio.

362
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 11: He was in the studio and then he came in

363
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 11: and laid it down. It's crazy.

364
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 2: Wow, that's crazy.

365
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

366
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 9: I was gonna ask when you said we got to

367
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 9: work on it, you can go back and make sure

368
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 9: that you guys are credited on the song now, even

369
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 9: though like it's been listed certain how that works.

370
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 6: Because I think I think Pam was able to do

371
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 6: that with hypnotized So and.

372
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 9: Then we get our sounded we get we get performance

373
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 9: royalties for it, like our Sound Exchange and.

374
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 11: Stuff like that.

Speaker 9: And it has gotten updated. We had it updated on

396
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 6: time clearly when bad Boy was everywhere. It was nothing

397
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 6: to just walk in the club or walk anywhere and

398
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 6: just get.

399
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,680

Speaker 7: How the record got together, Like like we tell the

408
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 7: story of how we we were on Big. Like if

00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 7: the whole album.

412
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: That's because we were in the studio with him.

413
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 7: Like so Daddy's house had the Neve, the S s

414
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,439

Speaker 7: is all in the neve room. Seeds come out and

417
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 7: says yo, big one child. So we go in there.

418
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 7: From here up we smoked, right, so we can't see

419
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 7: where nobody's interest.

420
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: So we filled around.

421
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 7: So Big is just sitting there right, and and we

422
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 7: use this all that we use the word genius. We

423
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 7: throw the word genius out a lot, but this is

424
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 7: true definition of genius.

425
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 9: Right.

426
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 2: So we're walking in Big CS. He said, Yo, what up?

427
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:09,840

431
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 7: because we don't smoke.

00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 7: He's watching everybody tell their story like and heated.

460
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:32,240

461
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 9: Bro.

Speaker 4: That is a gift for sure.

466
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 5: But back in the day, it's like R and B

467
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 5: used to celebrate like love and heartbreak, but now like

468
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 5: it feels transactional. What do you'all think made vulnerability cool

469
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 5: back then?

470
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 12: Well, you know, I just think that it was a time.

471
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 12: It was just a time period where you know, where

472
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 12: everything was going in the world. We used music as

473
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 12: our getaway. It was our medicine, you know what I'm saying.

474
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 12: Anybody remember the nineties when we came to the club

475
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 12: and we came anywhere. Everybody came to party, to dance.

476
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

477
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 12: You know, now you're going you go into places. I

478
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 12: don't know how it is too much here in New

479
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 12: York as much, but I know in Atlanta everybody's staring

480
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 12: at each other everywhere there on the phone, you know,

481
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 12: and it's like it's a different type of a feel.

482
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 12: So you know, so it's his homecoming, if it's homecoming, and.

483
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: Okay, that's true, but regular clubs.

484
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 12: But even when you say that, you know, the alumni

485
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 12: us cranking it up, you know what I'm saying.

486
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 2: So you know, yeah, back then R and B was

487
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 2: kind of it was more hyperbolic, you know what I mean.

488
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: It was.

489
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 7: It was, you know, good damn will. We're not climbing,

490
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 7: no highest mountain, swimming, no deeper sea, but we gave

491
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 7: you we're not doing all of that, but we gave

492
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 7: you the impression we sung it and maybe believe that

493
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 7: that that was possible. Anything was possible in there. And nowadays, man,

494
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 7: it's just it's different.

495
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 11: The music is too, and we came from good music

496
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 11: from my parents.

497
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 13: That I was about to say, I think the other

498
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 13: thing that did it was hip hop became more hyperbolic,

499
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 13: definitely a good word for that. But when it merged

500
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 13: with R and B so much, it became not cool

501
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 13: to have feelings. But I guess that's how people felt.

502
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 13: And then the strip cup club culture got involved. When

503
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 13: it's everything is that And I always say that, like

504
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 13: with everything that's going on in the world and people's lives,

505
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 13: you got to be able to sing about something more

506
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 13: than threesomes in the strip clubs, something else going on,

507
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 13: what I'm saying, And nobody really does that. Well, I

508
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 13: won't say nobody, but a lot of the music doesn't

509
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 13: have that no more. They don't have the feelings, that

510
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 13: don't have the vulnerability. Like you said, it's all trying to.

511
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 2: Be rappers, basically, all the things trying to and a

512
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 2: lot of that.

513
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 5: Technology so crazy because even the rappers back then, most

514
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 5: of the rappers back then, we loved him because they

515
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 5: were vulnerable. You love pot because he was vulnerable. You

516
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 5: love Big he was vulnerab Kanye.

517
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 10: Because he was because vulnerable.

518
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 2: You can't be vulnerable.

519
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 4: You were so vulnerable.

520
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 8: At the end of I think it's missing you. You said,

521
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 8: I can't sing no more.

522
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 10: I was fighting for my life, for my life singing

523
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 10: that song.

524
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 8: And I was all day listen. So when you said

525
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 8: I can't sing the more you really couldn't or you was.

526
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 10: No, I was sick. You were yeah.

527
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 13: And when I got there, what happened was I went

528
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 13: to LA on Monday to do Missing You. We're supposed

529
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 13: to do it on Tuesday. I don't know what happened.

530
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 13: My voice went out, so I spent all day Tuesday

531
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 13: Wednesday trying to get it back. And Thursday it came back.

532
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 13: So what did I do? I went hanging out with

533
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 13: Jah and so I went to the club and then

534
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 13: that night we did living it up. Then it left

535
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 13: again the next day because I was out all night.

536
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 13: So it got to Friday. It was like, we don't

537
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 13: do it today, we can't do it. So I went

538
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 13: in there. I was drinking stuff all day, wouldn't come back.

539
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 13: Got to his studios like he can't sing or talk,

540
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 13: so he's like, can you try right, I'm like all right,

541
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 13: So I went there once he said keep you do

542
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 13: it one more time and I got to the end

543
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 13: and I felt it going. I'm like and then I

544
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 13: said I can't sing. Nobody want to say it so

545
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 13: I sang it. That'm like, I'm knocking on the glass

546
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 13: and I.

547
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 10: Know that that was it. That was it years and

548
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 10: I'm knocking the mind. That's why they sing nothing else.

549
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 10: I came out and tapped him on the shoulder. I'm like,

550
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 10: and that was I just.

551
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 4: Literally thought you missed her so much that you can't now.

552
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 10: I was fighting for my life and then what crazy

553
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 10: thing about that?

554
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 13: I got nominated for Grammy.

555
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 10: But that's the craziest part. They nominated for Grammys for

556
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 10: both them.

557
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 4: Songs Amazing, which was crazy.

558
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 10: Man, I was fighting that night.

559
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:50,199
Speaker 4: Yeah.

560
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 5: How do how do y'all balance egos? You know, you know,

561
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 5: when you're dealing with three legendary acts who all had

562
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 5: their individual moments, you know, gratitude.

563
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 7: It's it's a respect level, you know what I mean.

564
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 7: It's like because I'm I'm actually fans. Yeah, actually I

565
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 7: love that, and I know it sounds cliche with it,

566
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 7: but it's the truth. And you know, we we so

567
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 7: often we don't tell the truth. You know, we're getting

568
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 7: this type or form or whatever, but we are genuinely

569
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 7: like total was our first pick to be on this

570
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 7: Room one twelve tour case was our first pick to

571
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 7: be on this because in case his catalog, we just

572
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 7: spoke about his catalog ridiculous, total, ridiculous, one twelve ridiculous,

573
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 7: and we wanted to bring back that nineties nostalgia, you know,

574
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 7: and just bring back that whole era of I knew

575
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 7: where I was when I heard only You for the

576
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 7: first time, you know, I knew where I was when

577
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 7: I heard Cupid, when I heard I'm Missing You, and

578
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 7: when I heard can't you See for the first time,

579
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 7: Like I remember where I was when I heard these

580
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:56,239
Speaker 7: It was to be where I was.

581
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 9: You know.

582
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 13: I think that ego is healthy on a tour, especially

583
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 13: like this, because you have to if you use it

584
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 13: the right way. Like for me, it's like, Okay, I'm

585
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 13: gonna try to kill everybody. They're gonna feel the same.

586
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 13: And then the fans the one that win, as opposed

587
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 13: to people who just go up there and don't care,

588
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 13: like I just got.

589
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 11: To We come from that, you got you got to

590
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 11: come from that, right, We come from that.

591
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 6: Came tour and be like, well, totally when twelve just killed,

592
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 6: y'all got Okay, that's how you.

593
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 10: Gotta do it.

594
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 13: Common and that's that's the because the only people that

595
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 13: win is the fans.

596
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: Was there ever a low time for y'all?

597
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 3: Because I feel like my daughter's twenty four and she

598
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 3: loves nineties music more than anything. R It's probably because

599
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 3: dad plays it in the house. Mom and Dad played

600
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 3: in the house.

601
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: But I just I feel like, was there a low time?

602
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 3: And then I feel like nineties just came back and

603
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: is stronger than even this year, is like.

604
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: This decade's music. Was it ever a low time for y'all?

605
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it definitely was.

606
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 7: I think for us, the resurgence of the nineties, you know,

607
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 7: was was something that was what we appreciated more than anything,

608
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 7: and that happened about what maybe almost like six seven

609
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 7: years ago.

610
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 12: It was like where the pandemic around that you didn't

611
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 12: know when you didn't know what the state of music

612
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 12: and how the industry and how we were going to

613
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 12: perform was going to be. Remember, everybody started experimenting with

614
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 12: the whole you know, taping, you know, and then the video.

615
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 12: It was just, yeah, I thought we were going to

616
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 12: just it's going to be that, you know, so so

617
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 12: much gratitude now to you know what I mean, see

618
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 12: it for where it is, and and we feel like

619
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 12: it's a blessing that of all the errors they chose.

620
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 5: To pick, they picked the nineties.

621
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 12: You know what I'm saying, So thank you.

622
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 5: I would want to go back, just I really want

623
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 5: to experience it in New.

624
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 11: York, like left at Me.

625
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 9: I think at that one time you left at Me time.

626
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 9: I just feel like the time that you guys were

627
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 9: like like the top, it was such a good time here.

628
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 9: It doesn't seem real, like when we hear the stories

629
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 9: or like I this y'all talk about just walking in

630
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 9: the studio, Big Biggie's just there and like, you know,

631
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 9: I can't imagine I'm young and just being like on top. Yeah,

632
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 9: like in that time, but.

633
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 7: You're working so hard that you don't even realize it,

634
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 7: you know what I mean, Like you don't even realize

635
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 7: what it took us to step away from it, you know.

636
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 7: And and okay, we can use it as our downtime,

637
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 7: you know, and say that that was the time for

638
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 7: us to go back and look at it and say, man,

639
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 7: we we did more than just seeing you know, we

640
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 7: contributed to a culture like we we are part of.

641
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 2: History, you know. Culture. Yeah, so that was amazing.

642
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 7: It's looking at it now being older, like you're looking

643
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 7: at it now because my kids now they're they're going

644
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 7: back and they googling like dad, y'all, y'all did pieces

645
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 7: of green in the video? My kid, no, because I

646
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 7: don't go around I don't. I don't go around here looking, you.

647
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 2: Know, I don't. I don't do that.

648
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 7: You know, like they just they they grew up as

649
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 7: normal as I I hoped I could, because I could

650
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 7: teach them to be because it's such a mental strain

651
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 7: that the industry takes.

652
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 2: Like it gives, but.

653
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 7: It also takes. One of the things is, you know,

654
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 7: the lack of you know, the mental health that comes along.

655
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying with that, because you're you're

656
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 7: inundated with all of this. You know, you have to

657
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 7: be perfect every time you see you're out, you all,

658
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 7: your face has always got to be right, your clothes

659
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 7: got to always be right or man, they don't fell off, bro,

660
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 7: Like I just came from the jail, you know.

661
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 3: But I think the camera messed up. The camera messed

662
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 3: it up because when like the reason I.

663
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: Asked if he was out is I would see everybody

664
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: out right.

665
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 3: I was a kid growing up, so I would go

666
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 3: to grands toom and see y'all one hundred twenty fifth

667
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 3: stri I would go to the tunnel and see y'all

668
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: in the tunnel and different things, And there was no

669
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 3: VIP area. That's what it was, and it gave you

670
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 3: a connection with an artist, but there was no phone,

671
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 3: so it was no I'm taking a picture.

672
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: It was no The only thing that you would possibly.

673
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 3: Do if you want, and nobody want to look corny,

674
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 3: but you might ask for a order, but nobody wanted

675
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 3: to come to club and do that.

676
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: So it gave you you joined the moment, and I

677
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: feel like people are not enjoying the moment.

678
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 13: To the micro and everybody had I hate when you

679
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 13: come out on stage and everybody got a phone.

680
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 10: I'm like, it's happening right here in front of you.

681
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 13: And then for me anyway, I don't think that because

682
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 13: I think part of when you perform is the it's

683
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 13: how it sounds, is how it looks, but it's the

684
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 13: energy in the room, and you can never if you

685
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 13: go back and watch that, you're not going to get

686
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 13: that energy. The energy is right there in front of you.

687
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 13: Like for me, I would maybe take a picture, quick video,

688
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 13: then I would put my phone down.

689
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 10: I went to see Stevie wonder. I ain't even take

690
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 10: a picture.

691
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 13: I sat there because there's an energy that goes with it,

692
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 13: and I think a lot of people miss that because

693
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 13: you're like this and I'm like, yo, it's right in

694
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 13: front of you.

695
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 10: If you put the phone down, it's happening right.

696
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 8: There exactly because you got to watch the phone to

697
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 8: see if you got the singing off key.

698
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 13: And so I'm like, am I'm messing up? When I

699
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 13: see the videos, I'm like that's I'm like, hold on,

700
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 13: did I just ain't?

701
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 11: No way, I just did that.

702
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 10: I did that.

703
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 6: I'm like, man, I'm like, I've never went live ever

704
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 6: went live on Instagram, and I wasn't expecting this.

705
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 11: Beyonce came out and she just started speaking. I'm all live.

706
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 6: I'm like, I'm on live, y'all dos b and she

707
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 6: started speaking and I started crying. I was not expecting.

708
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 6: I was like, okay, guys, I gotta go. Literally, I

709
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 6: might have been filming for like ten seconds. You gotta

710
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 6: be in a moment because it's an experience, you know

711
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 6: what I mean?

712
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 5: Watching it back is no, it's not I wanted to

713
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 5: ask you, Kim what was your household like growing up?

714
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 5: Because I got four daughters, and you know, a couple

715
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 5: of them express wanting to be in the arts. You

716
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 5: and your sister Vita, y'all actually made it happen with that,

717
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 5: your parents pushing y'all to both be in the industry of.

718
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 10: What was no.

719
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 9: God's plan. Vita was always a lot more outgoing than me,

720
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 9: so it wasn't surprising for me that she got into it. No,

721
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 9: like my mama had us in church. You know, my

722
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 9: mom was what's a struggle for her? So like I know,

723
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 9: for me, all I wanted to do was just be successful.

724
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 9: I wind up singing. We sung in the choir and

725
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 9: stuff like that. But I wind up being in a

726
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 9: group and entertaining the industry through Keisha. When we became friends,

727
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 9: she heard me sing, but it was just something that

728
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 9: we just always did. My mom sung back up for Ritha.

729
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 9: Franklin grew up in that era, but it was pretty

730
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 9: normal at home. Like I really honestly didn't have time

731
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 9: to dream because I was so busy trying to figure out, Okay,

732
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 9: how I'm gonna help my mom. Like I needed to work,

733
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,479
Speaker 9: So you know, that was my plan as soon as

734
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 9: I was old enough. So Nope, she didn't push us.

735
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 9: She supported us like she was our number one fan,

736
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 9: but she didn't push us to be into it.

737
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 11: Being an.

738
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 9: Missy Elliott. Oh, Missy tove that she had a rap

739
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 9: voice and be don't stop rapping.

740
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 5: So this is this when y'all did What About Us?

741
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 5: So I was it around this time?

742
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, like Missy, we had met Missy before she

743
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 9: started writing What About Us and stuff like cause, like

744
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 9: you said, everybody kind of hung around each other.

745
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 11: So Missy we became a while too.

746
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 9: We became Missy and I was really close at one

747
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 9: time and she was out my house at Jersey and

748
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 9: her Vita talking and she told Vito you should rap.

749
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 9: Beta started rapping.

750
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 7: Wow, got a story for that too. So Missy used

751
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 7: to hang out at Daddy's house all the time. Yeah,

752
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 7: and so she was like, yo, puff, I want to

753
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 7: get on this record. So we wrote a record for

754
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 7: Geena Thompson. We wrote that right Missy came in. She

755
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 7: was like, yo, I need to get on this jone.

756
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 7: I need to get on it. And then that's the

757
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 7: first time you heard her do the.

758
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 2: The record.

759
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 7: That was the first time that you know, she was

760
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 7: in Sister, She was in the Girl Sister at that point,

761
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 7: but she had came up and she was like, Yo,

Speaker 7: one twelve them I'm writing there.

764
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 2: So she was just all the time.

765
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 7: She was just in Daddy's house, man, And that was

766
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 7: the energy that was around bad boys, Like we were

00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,479
Speaker 7: times it wasn't, you know, just it was by design.

771
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 7: It was really just being in the room at the

772
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 7: right place at the right time, you know, and just
